So tomorrow begins the Live Healthy Iowa-I00 day challenge! I am on a team of eight. Each week we track our minutes and what not. Mostly, it is just an excuse to set goals and to exercise and develop healthy habits. Tonight I got together with Amber and we set some goals that we want to achieve. Here are my weekly goals. I am planning to update this every week so I can track how I am doing with my goals. Wish me luck. Week One begins tomorrow.
Week One Goals:
1. Drink More Water-At least 48 ounces a day. I am terrible at drinking water. I drink tons of coffee and I need to make sure I am staying hydrated.
2. Eat Breakfast Everyday
3. Run for at least 15 of my 45 minutes treadmill workouts 3 times a week and do 2 yoga sessions a week.

Christmas 2010-My Mom's Family
okay, this is my last Christmas posting. Next year I will have to do better at taking pictures of all of our Christmas Celebrations!
We spent Christmas Day with my mom's family. There was a great turnout and we got to spend time with some family that we don't see very often. That is what the holidays are all about! That night we spent the night at my parents.

Christmas 2010-My Dad's Family
Well I am still try to get updated on our holiday celebrations. On December 18th, we celebrated Christmas with my dad's family! We had a great time seeing family and catching up with what has been going on in everyone's lives. This year we played bingo, ate food of course enjoyed the annual Christmas sing-a-long. In 2010, the family welcomed Esme Ruth, Kari and Thomas's baby girl. 2011 sounds like there is a lot to look forward to with all the babies on the way. Congratulations to the parents to be! Here are some pictures of the celebration!

New Orleans and the Gulf Coast
In mid-December John and I took a vacation to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. We had a great time in New Orleans walking around and checking out the area. Here are a few pics from our sightseeing.
In front of the Mississippi River
St. Louis Cathedral-Built in 1720, one of the oldest Catholic Cathedrals in the country.
John and his new lady.
Looks like I got a new guy too. Gotta love the bow.
The infamous Bourbon Street. I can tell you I would not want to be here on Mardi Gras.
Oak Alley Plantation-we couldn't believe how big the oak trees were.
Finally, we made it to the beach. Not too many people out as it was only in the 60's.
